1200C hard to change starter

I'm with a museum that has an International 1200C 4x4 with a straight 6 and the starter motor died. It took us over an hour to get the darn starter removed. The upper bolt is well protected from being reached by any kind of ordinary socket, box wrench or pliers. One of the guys eventually broke the end off his 3/4" box wrench so it was only 3" long--that fit in there and the bolt came right out. How do you tackle hard to reach bolts like this?
